It looks like a cultigen of a cultivar :). I get confused between cultigen and cultivars !!! But I dont think this is Miltoniopsis Hajime Ono 'Black Falls' but something very close. They always have a commercial name which differs from the taxonomic names. Like a hypothecial example, Dendrobium affine 'Amitabh Bacchan'. Now if someone produces a next hybrid or among the former there is a plant which looks a bit different then may be he will name it Dendrobium Amitabh Bacchan 'Avishek'.
